thanks, the body is from a New Bright Jeep that you can buy from wal-mart, or you could possibly find on ebay.
i attached the body by tapping holes through the rear of the body and the the chassis using 3mm screws.

do u think u can get some pics on how u attached it? is the body 1/10 or 1/15?

i will be able to post some pics of how i mounted it tomorow, i am currently away from home.
the body is 1/10, but the wheelbase is much shorter than your wk, if you are planning on buying one of these bodies you will need to make custom links, although as you can see i am running the stock 3-link the front links need to be about a centimeter longer.
